    Another question for PWKH

    As interesting as that would be to know, that doesn't sound like something he would want to publically disclose.

    Game of Thrones

    The new trailers do look pretty good, the Dany scenes with her unsullied look great. I can't wait for "Dracarys". In fact her best storylines should probably happen this series ( of what's been written already ). Her chapters were by far the best at this stage in the novels, up to the weddings...

    Sod the yanks- I want promotion!!!!

    We all want promotion. But if we make the playoffs there are still 3 other teams, given our record of bottling the matches that really count, do you really think that's on the cards?

    American property tycoon will move to buy Coventry if club slides into administration

    Strange that some one on Twitter yesterday had heard rumours of Bates being linked with the club. Even more interesting was PWKH yesterday re emphasising the need to develop the land around the stadium. Almost warming us up to the idea of this.

    So, now we have a prospective purchaser.

    Even as someone who wants them out (as I think it's best for the club, not a vendetta against them) I agree with your last paragraph.

    American property tycoon will move to buy Coventry if club slides into administration

    If true (I might wait until the Guardian or Times report it before believing it) then it shows there is someone waiting in the wings. Getting Sisu to simply roll over and this person to take over before next season with no complications will be mission impossible. Is going to be a long drawn...

    Sky Blue Trust - Certainty of takeover

    I could also say that ccfc wouldn't exist without ACL stepping in with the stadium. A massive balls up on our part, but they did bail us out.

    Grass isn't always greener

    It's bound to drag on. It always does. It's always a nail biting lengthy saga.

    Grass isn't always greener

    You are right it might not be much better, but for gods sake it can't get any worse. Whether you blame Sisu or sympathise with them, they are stuck. Totally and utterly stuck. Their plan didn't work, it will now never work. You can argue about the morals all day, and who's right or wrong but...

    would you rather?

    We've put off the inevitable for too long. This club cannot survive in its current state. If it's not now is in a few years. The thunder clouds constantly over head. The club died the day the old regime couldn't get the cash to finance the Ricoh. It's been a long prolonged death, but that was...

    Question about rent

    I think Sisu do have business acumen. But not in the realm of football, where they are totally clue less. If this wasn't a football club they would have probably bullied their way through this. But there is more about a club. The fans, the sentiment, the badge. They can't get their own way...

    Problems & thoughts/options for going forward

    I do actually think this club could be turned around into a profit making company within a few years with the revenue streams and some good investment. Step 1 - lower ticket prices to get the JPT effect. 25k a match would get the feel good factor back and make us very attractive to players...

    ACL Genius

    Wake up. The rent has very little to do with it really. Also they have had a good offer for the rent, accepted it and then gone back later and rejected it

    And I would still take blind hope over certain liquidation

    I would be interested to see how much of the debt we owe Sisu is due to their management charges the club pays them.

    SISU / ACL arguments - for god's sake!

    It's kind of what forums are for. There is probably a forum somewhere where catholics are moaning about the choice of pope and arguing who should have been picked.

    The part where the football league would step in and stop that ends your theory re liquidating one of the companies and moving it up. I doubt it would get past the court of law either.

    Cwr

    Whether ACL are doing it for themselves or not ( and I still think they care about ccfc more than Sisu), it's still in our benefit if they succeed. Fisher threatened liquidation. Was it a bluff or posturing? Doesn't matter now, they threatened it. So it's this or no more ccfc. If anyone is...
